2. A lightweight fast-drying towel perfect for those summer camping trips where you'll be swimming in a lake, river or other body of water.
3. A 20-ounce Hydro Flask coffee travel mug because caffeination is key. It will keep your iced coffee cold for up to 24 hours and your tea hot for up to 12, making it perfect for any outdoor activities you have in store for the summer.
4. An inflatable camp pillow so you can rest easy in the tent at night. Plus it's super compact and will definitely be a lot more comfortable than sleeping on a pile of clothes.
5. An any-season four-person tent that's arguably the most important piece of camping gear you can buy. It was field-tested in Alaska so it's perfect for breezy summer nights and will keep you protected no matter what the weather has in store.
6. A self-inflating sleeping pad for the person who loves to camp, but still requires a quality night of sleep. It's the perfect way to elevate your tent setup — you won't regret the investment when your back isn't killing you post-backpacking trip.
7. A 12-tray food dehydrator that makes packing food for a camping trip or thru-hiking expedition as easy as adding hot water. You can make full meals or dried fruits, all without preservatives and for a fraction of the cost of those pricy, pre-made dehydrated meals. We promise you won't regret it.
8. An Osprey women's backpack for the person who appreciates super high-quality outdoor products. If you're looking for a pack you'll have forever, look no further than Osprey.
9. A Yeti stackable mug so you can enjoy your morning coffee in the great outdoors. If you're away from home, you don't have to sacrifice your caffeine intake because this to-go Yeti is great for all summer activities — fishing, camping, boating, you name it!

11. A pair of Keen sport sandals for the person who's a total water bug. They're ideal for swimming and water activities but can also be worn for short hikes or walks.
12. An outdoor rocking chair because it's never a bad time to invest in your physical health. Sitting on the ground or rocks can take a toll on your back. By adding a chair — and one that rocks too — to your camping setup, you'll offer your body some much-needed relaxation.
13. A moisture-wicking sun hat with a chinstrap so your face won't get scorched. It's perfect for those who forget to reapply sunscreen and will keep you from getting a wicked burn that could potentially ruin your perfect summer day.
14. A pair of North Face waterproof hiking shoes that are super lightweight and perfect for all-terrain. Honestly, you really can't go wrong with North Face.
15. A Columbia casual skort for the person who likes to look cute while they hike. It's super stretchy, has pockets and can be worn not just for hiking, but also for running, dancing, cycling, tennis, or even just walking around the neighborhood.
16. A collapsible bowl because sometimes the best items are the most essential ones. You'll definitely need a bowl or two for any camping meals this summer, so why not make it a super compact one? Great for pups too!
17. A lightweight backpacking pot so you can enjoy a home-cooked meal from, well, anywhere! It's perfect for alpinists and long-distance backpackers who have to be mindful of every ounce they carry.
18. An ultralight hammock for the person who just wants to relax under the rustling trees in a backyard, forest, or any wooded area. It's lightweight so it'll keep you cool and it's super packable and easy to set up, which is always a plus after a long hike.
19. A light rain jacket so you can be prepared for even the most unsavory summer weather. Just because it's mostly sunny doesn't mean you won't experience a storm from time to time. Best to be ready for anything!
